  • Jeanette P.

    “You were great to talk through the design process with. You kept us informed and involved throughout the process. We also greatly appreciated the many design options you gave us. Our backyard has been transformed into a space in which we enjoy spending hours upon hours. It is functional yet visually pleasing. When entertaining, guests always comment on what a great space it is. You provided us with a number of different options for our space. The visuals provided for each of the options really helped us to see our space differently and be more confident in the decisions we were making. Marc is professional, knowledgeable, creative, responsive, and works together with you to design and achieve what you desire in your space. We trusted him wholeheartedly and loved the results. We cannot recommend him enough.”

    “You listened to everything we asked for/said. Your final rendering was exactly what we wanted - but we never knew how to conceptualize it. You really nailed the assignment, and you were super creative, things like the privacy side panels aren’t things we would have ever thought of doing. You were receptive, available, friendly, patient, and super fun. Honestly I know I will work with you again on the next projects. It made such a difference on this house - I can picture the final result and it completely changes the house. Thank you!!

    The results and the process are equally great!

    Marc is professional, fun, patient, totally understands the brief and will blow it out of the water. He cares, spends the time it takes to get it right, and is a real creative genius. He will see options and possibilities where you never did.”

    “I was looking for a landscape design that would be easy to execute and maintain on our own. Marc helped us by designing a modern and sustainable front and back yard, complete with a covered deck and low maintenance, drought resistant plants. Marc is enthusiastic and passionate for his work and shows great attention to detail, making the whole experience very enjoyable. I would recommend JAM Design Workshop to anyone looking for a landscape designer who can add value and beauty to their property.”

    ”We were having a swimming pool installed in the spring of 2021 and in laying out the position of the pool, the construction manager miscalculated the elevation of the pool leaving a large drop off at the end furthest from the house. It was at this point that Marc came into the project. Unlike the construction manager, Marc took a genuine interest in what we had hoped the finished look was to be for the pool area. He carefully explained what errors had been made even stating at one point that he wished they would have called him in for consultation before they broke ground. After taking his own measurements and photos he told us that he'd have a plan ready within a couple days. After Marc left we realized that his sincerity had left us feeling much relieved that someone had finally taken the time to listen to us and also understood our budgetary and timeline concerns. Marc kept his word and within two days came back with a landscape design that provided what we needed and wanted to finish the pool. We signed a contract with him that day and he immediately ordered the materials required which were delivered within another three days. We had wanted a particular coloured stone for the pool deck which we were told was not available due to shortages but Marc managed to locate the product from a supplier in Toronto and had it shipped in right away. The work was started the following week and Marc was present that morning and visited the site often to inspect the progress and troubleshoot issues as the landscape and hardscape work continued. As well as onsite visits we found Marc responded promptly to our telephone and online communications and always worked quickly to address any concerns we had. Marc's professionalism and integrity impressed us very much and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or use his services again in the future. I would urge them not to hesitate and call today. We had spoken to two other landscape designers around the same time we contracted with Marc and found Marc to be the most professional and responsive and provided the best timeline to get the work started and completed despite the high demand at the time for these kind of services due to the pandemic.”
